Lindy Hume On Opera In 2014

“…it’s not just the companies in flux, but audience appetites and art itself. This is a rare opportunity for a rethink. The best outcome would be a blueprint for a more sustainable, flexible opera ecosystem in Australia, truly integrated into (and a genuine reflection of) our contemporary society.”
